A question to those of you who have purchased and acclimated Fancy Guppies into your tanks:

Have you found them particularly difficult to acclimate?
Or have you found them not adjust well after acclimating them to your tank?
 
I've never had a problem of acclimating fish. No matter where I get my new fish from I always drip acclimate them to my water. May take a couple hours or more, but never had a problem with doing it that way.
 
I'm inexperienced, so I never knew they were supposed to be a problem. I bought 4 fancies about a month ago and they're happy as little clams.
 
Thank you for the the responses. I've just read that they are fragile little guys and I have read some pretty sad stories about them not acclimating well. :(

Just wanted to see some perspective from people who have actually purchased them and put them in their tanks. I'm thinking about getting a couple for my mom's tank.
